This study aims to explore the association between dysfunctional sleep beliefs and vulnerability to stress-related transient sleep disturbance in people without sleep disturbance. One hundred thirty-two good sleepers and 307 poor sleepers were included in this study. As expected, poor sleepers showed more dysfunctional beliefs than good sleepers on the Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep scale-10 item version (DBAS-10). More important, even in good sleepers, DBAS-10 scores positively correlated with the vulnerability to stress-related sleep disturbance as measured by the Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test. The results suggest that dysfunctional sleep belief is not only a perpetuating factor for chronic insomnia, it may also serve as a risk factor for stress-related transient insomnia.

Objective: This study examined the relationship between diffusion tensor imaging indicators and brain network characteristics in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) with (CSVD + S) and without (CSVD-S) sleep disturbance. We explored the feasibility of using these imaging biomarkers to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying sleep disturbance in patients with CSVD.
Methods: A total of 146 patients with CSVD and 84 healthy controls were included.

Background And Objectives: Insomnia symptoms are more prevalent in older age and may be impacted by negative perceptions of aging; however, more research is needed. The present study characterizes the relationship between negative aging stereotypes and clinical insomnia symptoms in a nationally representative sample of older United States (U.S.

Objective: This study explores the associations between various sleep durations and metabolic health indices, including systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), total cholesterol levels, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and waist circumference.
Methods: Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2021 to 2023, were analyzed. MANOVA and Bonferroni-adjusted ANOVAs were conducted to examine the relationships between sleep duration (sleep deprivation (≤5 h), short sleep (5-7 h), recommended sleep (7-9 h), and long sleep (>9 h)) and metabolic health indices.

Background: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) frequently experience sleep disturbance and psychological distress, such as depression and anxiety, which may have a negative impact on their health status and functional abilities. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the symptoms of depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance in patients with OSA, the current study utilized network analysis to examine the interconnections among these symptoms.
Methods: Depressive and anxiety symptoms were evaluated using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and sleep disturbance symptoms were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
